Leeds United's appeal against the £24.5million they were ordered to give Jean-Kevin Augustin in compensation has been withdrawn from the Court of Arbitration for Sport, according to reports.
Leeds were ordered to pay their former player - who signed on loan from RB Leipzig in January 2020 - a staggering £24.5m after being found to have breached his contract.
Leeds decided to appeal the decision, which was made by FIFA's Dispute Resolution Chamber, adding another twist to the long-running saga surrounding the French forward.
However, The Athletic are now reporting that Leeds have withdrawn their appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport - claiming 'that process has ended prematurely without a further ruling.
